In the May 1st, 2009 issue of Javanan Magazine we
had the great opportunity to be interviewed by Mr. Zokaei and were written
about in Farsi. We thought that a lot of our children or fellow Iranians who
have been born and raised outside of our beautiful and precious homeland, Iran,
and cannot read Farsi might be interested in gaining some information and
insight on what we do in our dual PhD program in Psychoneurology and
Integrative Healing.

Psychoneurology is a study of the interaction
of the brain and nervous system and how our experience of the world is composed
of various building blocks/elements. By altering these elements, we can create
a corresponding change in our feelings, behavior, attitude, and how we
experience the world. In Psychoneurology, our focus is generating and
adding new choices/options to the patient/client, (known in Psychoneurology as Resources),
that will change how they experience their world and how they respond to it.
These Protocols, methods of Psychoneurology, can be used in lieu of a
number of psycho-active medications (drugs) often with remarkable and lasting
results

Integrative Healing on the other hand is about
creating balance in the body, mind, and spirit through different methodologies
found in: Chinese Herbology, Ayruveda (Indian Herbology), Amazonian Herbology,
Clinical Hypnotherapy, various yogas (unification of mind and body), and
Biomedical Nutrition, just to name a few.

In Psychoneurology, we view human beings as
whole and complete, instead of broken or fractured. Rather than labeling the
client/patient, we gather the information that will be necessary for the
creation of a successful outcome. This information gathering process is known
as Calibration. Then we support the client in locating other resources,
insights, abilities, or talents that they are utilizing in other areas of life
or not accessing at all, at this time. Finally, we help our client to fully
access and integrate these resources, which they can start using in their life
immediately to create new results.

Through Integrative Healing we assist people in creating
balance in their mind and body so the dis-comfort or dis-ease
will start to subside.

In Psychoneurology our objective is to create
the highest level of Thriving, as opposed to merely negating illness or
dis-ease. Psychoneurology combines the wisdom from ancient practices
with results generated through leading-edge technologies to create optimal
health. Having the world view that perceives human beings as fundamentally
perfect, whole, and complete, we add resources of joy and wholeness.

There are 22 presuppositions in Psychoneurology on
which we base our practice. For example, the 14th presupposition in
Psychoneurology states that: “Body and mind are parts of the same system”. When
there is an ailment in the body that has been created from a thought process,
or an emotion which has not been dealt with properly, it will show up in a
particular part or organ of the body as some kind of dis-ease, sickness, or
pain. A healthy mind creates a healthy body and vice versa.

We prefer to see our clients in person,
one-on-one, because as human beings we are always communicating. We observe the
autonomic responses of our clients/patients and connect with them not only
through talking and listening but non-verbally as well. We interact with our
clients/patients throughout the whole session and are not a silent
receiver/observer. Our clients/patients leave the session energetic and happy
with new resources to use right away in their everyday life.

In regards to addictions, compulsive behaviors of
any sort, even phobias, we believe that they are survival mechanisms and
have been the best resources at the time that the person has had access to.
Through our different techniques, we "will" find other positive
neuro-pathways and integrate them in the client’s internal structure of
experience. The client no longer has an experience of phobia or addiction
anymore, but instead is using other effective ways to deal with life.

In summary, Psychoneurology is: Calibration,
Identifying the Resource, and Integrating those Resources. It is a Destiny
Technology and Outcome-Based approach verses the pathology driven model which
comes from negating dis-ease, problems, or issues. We are technicians utilizing
protocols to create change in our client/patient through changing the
neuro-pathways (the way the client used to feel about some incident will be
changed without losing the experience). Psychoneurology allows us to
understand how our brain codes experiences. This is what enables us to make
such surprisingly rapid changes. Psychoneurology demonstrates the more you
focus your thought or energy on an issue, either positive or negative, the more
you will expand it. Based on this belief, we concentrate more on “Thriving and
Joy” in order to direct our subconscious to create more of what we want in our
lives.
